| Date | August 7, 1968 |
| Short description | Recording Sessions. Songs Recorded: Not Guilty. |
| Location | Abbey Road Studios |
This was the date of two recording sessions. The first session is noted as taking place between 3:00 and 7:45 PM (though it probably did not really take that long). During this session, a mono tape copy of Hey Jude was made. Later, from 8:45 PM to 5:30 AM, The Beatles began recording Not Guilty, a George Harrison composition. This song would become the first Beatles song to exceed 100 takes and would not even be officially released until the 1996 outtakes compilation Anthology 3. In this session, The Beatles recorded Takes 1 through 46 of the basic track. However, only five of these would be complete.
